The Accent Quartet is back with a brand new line-up! Collaborations are IN this season! And possibly forever! Singing all the parts of arrangements is fun, but nothing beats the sound of four unique voices that are specialize in the range they’re singing in. And who else is more perfect for the job than my bandmates Simon, JB, and James! We got our hands on this arrangement when we traveled to Texas earlier this year to celebrate the music of Gene Puerling in concert, where we were lucky enough to see Gene’s original scores and meet the remaining members of the Hi-Lo’s - dream come true! The collaborators in this video are not just singers, but a driving force to keep this niche genre of music alive. It’s an incredible joy for us to make this music and share it with you. We hope you enjoy it.
All the singers in this video are part of a larger, 6-person jazz a cappella group called Accent. Find our work at www.accentvocal....

Fantastic!!! You sound like the original guys. I have trouble following the middle parts, which drives me crazy!!! I can sing harmony and blend with others, just not with this style. The vocals are constantly moving. I absolutely love it.
This song brings back memories when I was a kid in the 50's and always listening to the hiLos and the Freshmen while my friends were into Doo Wop. This was one of my favorites, I had all their albums.
Yeah! great blend guys!

Thank You for posting this musical love letter, Will
Beautiful.
AWESOME!!!!
Such old souls you boys are. Always a joy to hear your interpretations of these beautiful classics. Is that Simon providing the subtle instrumentals? Classy as always! Sigh, my "julie quartet" would love to pair up with you guys sometime..... I hear she likes oldies too..... :)
PHENOMENAL
Nobody does Hi-Lo's better than this collective. It's interesting hearing Simon on top with JB underneath him. I don't think I've ever heard this dynamic before and I like it! That arrangement is just sick! Love the accompaniment as well, Simon.
+Nostril Jacker We wanted to change up the sound a little bit! I really wanted to sing some low(er) notes! Simon knows the style and inflections well that it makes a lot of sense for him to record first and set the dynamic and the he does a killer job of the high notes too!
It paid off! You sound great down there and I really like JB On second tenor! I'm so used to hearing him on top that I wasn't sure initially. Great decision! Simon really kills it up there. James is a great baritone so this is likely nothing for him. Thank you so much for keeping this sound alive! There's an authenticity to your approach that no one else can get near.
+Nostril Jacker Passion drives it! Thanks for your kind words as always, and your support as a dedicated patron. We're already in conversation to figure out where to go next with this :D
Great! I love anything you choose but I'd love to hear you guys tackle "I Thought About You" or "Jeepers Creepers". "ITAY" is just so gorgeous. We talked a bit about it some time ago (LONG ago so I don't expect you to remember). I'd love to hear your take on it. "JC" is just so much fun! The tempo is so fast and Comstock's arrangement is genius stuff. Gene is at his high-larious best on this one. That last "Hip-no-TIIIIIIIIZE" is the coolest thing. Anyway, just throwing these out there. I never make song suggestions but I had to try...:)
Great, as always.
Yes!
Danny, I haven't heard one of your songs that I didn't like! Really nice this one too! It's so great that you all are friends - each and collectively doing everything you do to create beautiful masterpieces on your own! It's gotta be hard work!! And you are doing it! Thanks for sharing this one today!! Just beautiful harmonies. :)
Superv, as usual.....
No appearance by George and Gracie? Anyone who gets that is OLD. Great work!
Not THAT old. Say good-night, Gracie.
Lol I think of them when I hear this song. I was a kid of 5 when burns and Allen had their show
Wow! Was looking at videos of The Hi-lo's and came across you guys. Very impressive!!!
We're some of their biggest fans and the reverse is true as well! We've met the surviving members on multiple occasions and connect to them regularly through Facebook :)
@@DannyFong That's nice to hear, Danny! So glad that I came across your videos. You guys are keeping the music alive!!

James's 7ths!
+Evan Sanders EVAN, you're a beast, man, all throughout I was like "how does Evan do this man!!!!!!!"
Yeah, right--you're a bari all day, every day!
Ha! This arrangement is very bari!
Those Db's! Also C as 3rd. The lowest I've heard Hi-Lo's nail is a Gb6: Bb, Db, Eb, Gb.
+Simon Åkesson He does have a very Manilow thing going on. It's the hair, I think... :)
